The ancient King of Babylon passed the Hammurabi code of laws
It was carved on black diorite 3700 years ago
You stand before the display, looking intently at the carvings
I stand aside, quietly admiring your face, which I deeply adore
Verse 2
Offerings, alter, war, bow & arrow, whose past do they belong to?
I love how you belong only to me in the midst of this crowd
We pass the Sumerian Goddess
And I wish in the name of the Goddess
My missing goes on like the Tigris River
When what is left of the Ancient Civilization is but an illegible language
The myth becomes a never-ending poem
*Chorus
My love for you has been written before this Century
[ Lyrics found on http://www.metrolyrics ]
And it has been buried in the flatlands of Mesopotamia
Uncovered after many centuries
We find the wordings to be still clear & intelligible
My love for you has been written before this century
And it has been buried in the flatlands of Mesopotamia
The promise of forever carved in cuneiform
The promise that has been eroded for thousands of years, will be re-enacted now
*Repeat Verse 1
*Repeat Chorus
I feel exhausted, I am far away from home
I am afraid that I will never be by your side again
*Repeat Chorus
Love Before the Century
Love Before the Century
